serendipity

I am still learning to sit quietly and see what happens. I find it difficult, but every so often there comes a beautiful little reward that makes the waiting worthwhile and reminds me that softly softly works.

As I came into my studio this morning, sat and looked at this painting in progress, the sun streamed through the window, and on to the black area. The sun spot it made look so much better than the long subtle shadow I had planned, and so it will be!

Today I am painting in earnest, and in between reading quietly. The perfect kind of day to spend on ones own. 🙂
